Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with it's rearmost wheels just leaving the ground, flaps deployed from the front and rear of the wings, and the nose raised sharply, and fluff forming on top of the wings, suggesting it has just taken off, and that this is a cold and damp day. The plane has a grey top half and white lower half, with large, purple "Qatar" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with smaller, grey titles in an Arabic script a bit further aft, above the wing root. There is a small Qatari flag on the upper rear fuselage, above the black registration "A7-AEI". The up-turned wingtips are the same purple as the titles. Dark grey stripes run along the tail, overlaid with an image of an animal with a pair of horns sticking up and backwards from the top of it's head. This logo is repeated in a smaller form on the side of the grey engine pods, under the wings. Green grass fills the foreground, with a black roadway right at the bottom of the frame, and a browny-grey taxiway running from side to side a bit further up. More grass in the background leads up to trees in the distance, under flat, murky grey sky.

Side view of a single-engined, high-winged, light aircraft parked facing to the right on short-mown grass. The plane is mostly white, with a red and green swirly stripe running along the body, the swooping up into the top of the tail and back down again, overlaid with the blue registration "G-BNTP" on the side of the rear fuselage. White support struts come from the side of the lower forward fuselage, stretching diagonally up and out towards a point about a quarter of the way along the wing. A rope dangles from a hook where the strut meets the wing, attached to a red traffic cone resting on the ground, acting as a weight in high winds. Short green grass fills the foreground, as well as much of the background, with a pair of light aircraft visible on the left of the frame, the nearest one white and blue with a white high wing, and the other silver, with a yellow and black checkerboard pattern on the rear of the tail, over laid with a red star. Trees in the far distance meet fluffs of white cloud that fill the top of the frame, with blue patches peeking through.

Rear side view of a white, large twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right. There is a thick, very pale blue stripe running along the body, overlaid with green "Cathay Pacific" on the forward fuselage. There is a thick green band around the tail, with a thick, white brush stroke resembling a flying bird in the middle, a design repeated in a smaller form under the cockpit. An array of blue and white or yellow and white planes are lined up, facing in various directions in the background. Rows of trees stretch across the rear of the frame, marking the edge of the airfield, under grey skies.

The plane is mostly white, with a pale blue belly, and light and dark blue "FlyBe" titles on the side of the forward fuselage. There is the light blue web address "WWWDotFlyBeDotCom"on the side of the white engine pods on the front of the wings, again with a pale blue belly, and the black registration "G-LGNO" on the upper rear fuselage. The large, pale blue text "Fly" is just in front of the horizontal stabiliser at the rear of the fuselage, with dark blue "Be" diagonally on the white tail, just above. Green grass fills the foreground, lining the near side of the runway, with a grass bank on the far side meeting trees in the distance, under flat grey sky.

Side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude, with undercarriage lowered from the rear of the engine pods on the wings, and flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The front of the plane is white, with the rear fuselage and tail being purple, and a diagonal, pale purple stripe running from under the forward fuselage, to the top of the rear fuselage, just under the tail. The black registration "G-JECP" is on a light purple fillet in front of the tail, and diagonal white "FlyBe" titles over 6 white dots on the tail. Blue sky with smears of grey cloud fill the background.

Side view of a yellow, high-winged, single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the right on short-0mown grass. The plane has blue stripes running along the top and bottom of the rear fuselage, swooping above and below the cockpit, respectively. The blue registration "G-RODW" is on the side of the rear fuselage, and diagonal grey "EuroFox" text behind the large, highly-glazed cockpit door. Short green grass fills the foreground and part of the background, with the tail of a similar yellow aircraft with the black registration "G-FOKS" peeking out from behind this plane's cockpit, on the right. Longer grass leads off to trees in the distance, under blue sky.

Rear view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner facing directly away from the camera. The plane is almost entirely white, with a red band around the rear fuselage, with a green and black diagonal stripe visible on the tail, and a red patch under the body. A large engine under each of the massive wings (and another engine further out on each side) match the planes humungous fuselage and tail, and somehow manage to make the trees in the background seem small. Shooting through a chainlink fence results in some slight vignetting in the bottom half of the frame. Cloudy grey sky with streaks of blue fill the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a grey taxiway. The plane is largely white, with a cream-coloured lower and rear fuselage, separated by a green and gold stripe coming from under the lower forward fuselage, then running over the wing and towards the tail-cone. There are large, green, billboard-style "PIA" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, over smaller, golden, "Pakistan International" text. Green Arabic calligraphy sits on the side of the forward fuselage, between the cockpit windows and forward passenger windows. The green registration "AP-BGY" is on the lower rear fuselage, under the rear-most cabin windows, with black text "Boeing 777-300ER" underneath, and green Arabic text just above those windows. The tail is mostly dark green, with a white star above a white crescent moon, with white waves at the base. The large engines, mounted under the wings, are the same cream colour as the rear fuselage. Green grass fills the foreground, with grey sky filling the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right at a busy airport. The plane is largely white, with large, dark blue "Kuwait" titles on the forward fuselage just aft of the forward door, and a small Kuwaiti flag just forward of the door. A large, blue, stylised bird covers the rear of the tail and lower rear fuselage, with the black registration "9K-AKM" on the upper rear fuselage, over the birds head. A smaller, white bird is also on the tail. The white engine pods under the wing have a diagonal blue band around the rear, and a dark blue flying bird at the front.# Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with the tail of a blue jet airliner on the left of the background, and the nose and forward fuselage of a grey and red jet airliner on the right, both parked facing grey cargo sheds, with trees behind that.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and undercarriage lowered, suggesting the plane is about to land. The plane is mostly white and the front, and a silvery grey at the rear, separated by a diagonal red band that runs from under the body forward of the wings to over the top just in front of the tail. Ther are red "Air Arabia Dot Com" titles on the forward fuselage, in English above the passenger windows and in an Arabic script below the windows. The tail is red, with a large image of a white flying bird, a logo repeated in red on the side of the engine pods under the wings. The black registration "CN-NML" is on the side of the upper rear fuselage, just above the rearmost cabin windows, , just ahead of a small Morrocan flag, with small, red text "Airbus A320" just below those windows. The dark grey shadow of the wing can be seen on the lower rear fuselage, suggesting that the sun is fairly low off to the right of the frame. Pale blue sky with occasional wisps of white cloud fill the rest of the frame.
